Modder Adds Local Co-op to Resident Evil: Revelations 2 on PC

A mod has been released for Resident Evil: Revelations 2 on PC that adds local co-op to the story mode.

The mod has “a few issues”, concedes creator FluffyQuack on Steam, but should let you play the entire game in co-op. The creator notes that keyboard controls affect both players so, in order for it to work, you need to have two gamepads.

A Capcom Europe spokesperson told IGN in a statement that the feature was cut over quality concerns and to focus on single local play. Capcom subsequently apologised to any players misled by the original Steam description for the game (which did not include a caveat explaining the local co-op featured in the console versions was omitted from the PC version).

Capcom is “currently looking into the matter” for a potential solution.
